why do we wear green on st. Patrick's Day
-
hey guys it's me again Douglas and
-
today I wanted to talk to you guys about a holiday that is celebrated all around
-
the world it's called st. Patrick's Day and on st. Patrick's Day you know people
-
wear green and they're celebrating Ireland and they you know like they eat
-
corned beef and cabbage and it's like this big big deal and you know I like
-
st. Patrick's Day because well I'm already green but I was wondering you
-
know what is st. Patrick's Day actually you know who even is st. Patrick he's
-
not a leprechaun so I decided to look it up I wanted to know who st. Patrick was
-
it turns out st. Patrick was a missionary who lived like 1500 years ago
-
like in the fifth century AD and here's kind of like a really brief synopsis of
-
his life see he started in a Christian family but he wasn't a Christian himself
-
it's just his family was Christian and he got kidnapped by pirates
-
like for real he got kidnapped by pirates and he got taken to Ireland and
-
sold as a slave and so he lived in Ireland as a slave for several years and
-
while he was there you know he remembered the stories that he heard of
-
Jesus and he became a Christian and at some point he found an opportunity to
-
escape so he ran away and he went back to his home you know he left Ireland you
-
know if it was me I would have been like oh I'm so glad to be away from Ireland
-
where I was a slave I'm never ever ever going back and if I do go back it's
-
gonna be like with an army to get revenge but no he went back home and he
-
you know stayed there for a little while but he got the support of the church and
-
he went back to Ireland to work as a missionary to tell people about Jesus
-
and it said that he used a three leaf clover to explain the Trinity to the
-
Irish people you know the the Trinity the Father Son Holy Spirit the One True
-
God three in one and that's one of the reasons why we see three leaf clovers
-
all over the place on st. Patrick's Day sometimes we call that three leaf clover
-
a shamrock and you know Ireland is awesome and a big part of st. Patrick's
-
Day is you know celebrating Ireland in the Irish people I totally think we
-
should celebrate Ireland because Jesus loves Ireland and Jesus loves you
-
wherever you are and you know the green I think is is just you know they call it
-
the Emerald Isle Ireland's called the Emerald Isle and
-
Emerald is a green color so that's probably why we work
-
Jesus loves Ireland Jesus loved Ireland so much that he sent Saint Patrick to
-
them to tell them the good news but yeah he went back to Ireland and he
-
told people about Jesus and I read that he started more than 300 churches and
-
baptized more than a hundred thousand people that's crazy
-
and these were the people that enslaved him and there's all kinds of other
-
interesting things that he's credited as doing you know some cool miraculous
-
things but for me the fact that he went back to the people who enslaved him and
-
he told them about Jesus he told them what was most important for them to hear
-
even though they were mean to him man that's something to celebrate that's
-
something to strive for Saint Patrick told the people who were mean to him the
-
good news of Jesus Christ and God used him to save so so so many people so my
-
challenge to you guys today is that you would remember what is really important
-
this st. Patrick's Day and that you would share the good news of Jesus Christ with
-
everyone even people who are mean to you just like st. Patrick did
-
hey guys I hope you liked this video and hey happy st. Patrick's Day yeah st. Patrick's Day
-
you know we're celebrating Saint Patrick and Ireland and the Irish people and
-
that's really cool and I want to hear from you guys
-
I want to hear where you are from because I know there are people who
-
watch my videos all over the world and that is so cool
-
I think it's so cool that we're all a part of the same body of Christ all over
-
the world doesn't matter if you're Irish or Japanese or Australian or or you're
-
from you know Uganda or you're from Israel or Honduras you know all over the
-
world we're all part of the same body of Christ and God loves all of us so I want
-
